What is Little Free Library@UPSI?

Little Free Library (LFL) UPSI is part of a global community project under littlefreelibrary.org, a non-profit organization from the United States.

Based on the principle of "Take a book and Leave a book", the books are completely free. LFL operates 24 hours a day with no return deadlines, no late fees, and no library membership required.

The LFL structure is placed in high-traffic public areas such as train stations to cultivate a reading culture among Malaysians.

Officially launched on 11 November 2022 with an MoU signed between UPSI and Railway Assets Corporation (RAC).
